Healthy Journey Day 185

Gratitudes:  Camping, A portable bathroom (in our trailer) Email that is motivational!  Started listening to the right mind right weight summit.  Fascinating!   I am currently listening to one about habits.   Emotional, physical, mental ones that tell us how we behave everyday.  Habit change has been on my radar a little more the last week or so.   I have been asking myself the question..."who do I need to become in order to reach my goals"   Have you ever asked yourself that?   It is interesting to see what the answer is.

I track this by completing my measurements every 4 weeks and weighing in weekly. My expectation is to see a decrease of approximately 5 inches per month.

 I am completing my daily trainer workouts, planning my meals, eating as I am hungry and listening to my fullness cues. I get in 10000 steps 6 times a week. I measure my progress with Sunday Morning weigh ins and document it on my blog. I stick to a regular bedtime and use a timer when I am on the computer.  I feel energetic and strong. I Feel good in my own skin.

"Every time you start to eat, check your hunger level.  Ideally, aim for around a level of 3 to begin eating.  If you are at a 5 or above, you are not biologically hungry.  If you are at 2 or lower, you're likely over hungry and at risk for overeating."  Scale and comments taken from the book "Intuitive Eating" by Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch.
